In the event of a malfunction or
1.
breakdown, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electric
current to reduce the risk of electric
shock. This compressor is equipped
with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and
a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into a matching outlet that
is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided – if it
2.
will not fit the outlet, have the proper
outlet installed by a qualified electri
-
cian.
Improper connection of the equip-
3.
ment-grounding conductor can re-
sult in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an
outer surface that is green with or
without yellow stripes is the equip-
ment-grounding conductor. If repair
or replacement of the electric cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect the
equipment-grounding conductor to a
live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or
4.
service personnel if the grounding
instructions are not completely under-
stood, or if in doubt as to whether the
compressor is properly grounded.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that
5.
have 3-prong grounding plugs and
3-pole receptacles that accept the
compressor’s plug.
Repair or replace damaged or worn
6.
cord immediately.
